In a word, yes. Holds up just fine. Now go take care of your

I made a small batch of quinoa earlier.

I didn't cook it long enough as it definitely had some bite to it.

The flavor was fine.

The downside was it created a dental floss nightmare! Those little beads
barely grow at all. YUK!

Was debating on adding some to the seared tuna/avocado salad I'm making
later but think I'll leave it out.

Another question is, does quinoa hold up in leftover refrigerated dishes?

Thanks,

Andy

I don't know if it would have helped, but I
highly recommend the Sonicare Elite toothbrush.
My dentist recommended it to me, and it's
way better than manual brushing.

Mark,

I use one. It's great for teeth and gums but is not a great substitute for
flossing, imho.
